- The refrigerant compositions of the present application are non-azeotrope refrigerant compositions capable of retrofoot.
- FIG. 1 is a diagram of a refrigerant circuit for explaining the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a figure for explaining the performance of this embodiment.
- Referring to FIG. 1, the first embodiment of the present invention will be described.
- FIG. 1 shows a refrigerant circuit using a non-azeotrope refrigerant comprising R600, R125, R508A, and R14.
- R508A is a refrigerant in which R23 is mixed with R116 (hexafluoroethane) at a ratio of 39:61.
- A discharge side piping (2) of a compressor (1) passes through a condenser (3), extends through a frame pipe (20), and is connected to an oil cooler (4) of the compressor (1).
- The piping extending out of the oil cooler (4) again passes through the condenser (3), and is connected to a first gas/liquid separator (5).
- A liquid phase piping (6) extending out of this first gas/liquid separator (5) is connected to a first capillary tube (7).
- This first capillary tube (7) is connected to a first intermediate heat exchanger (8).
- A gas phase piping (9) extending out of the first gas/liquid separator (5) passes through the interior of the first intermediate heat exchanger (8), and is connected to a second gas/liquid separator (10).
- A liquid phase piping (11) extending out of the second gas/liquid separator (10) is connected to a second capillary tube (12). The second capillary tube (12) is connected to a second intermediate heat exchanger (13).
- A gas phase piping (14) extending out of the second gas/liquid separator (10) passes through the interiors of the second intermediate heat exchanger (13) and a third intermediate heat exchanger (15) in this order, and is connected to a third capillary tube (16).
- The third capillary tube (16) is connected to an evaporator (17).
- A piping (18) extending out of the evaporator (17) is connected to the third intermediate heat exchanger (15). The third intermediate heat exchanger (15) is connected to the second intermediate heat exchanger (13), and in order, the second intermediate heat exchanger (13) is connected to the first intermediate heat exchanger (8). The first intermediate heat exchanger (8) is connected to a suction side piping (19) of the compressor (1).
- The interior of this refrigerant circuit is filled with a non-azeotrope refrigerant comprising R600, R125, R508A, and R14.
- The boiling points at the atmospheric pressure of R600, R125, R508A, and R14 are -0.5°C, -48.57°C, -85.7°C, and -127.85°C, respectively.
- Besides, as for the compositions of the respective refrigerants used in the embodiment, R600 was 33.3 wt.%, R125 was 21.3 wt.%, R508A was 21.3 wt.%, and R14 was 24.4 wt.%.
- Next, the operation will be described.
- The gaseous mixture refrigerant at a high temperature and a high pressure discharged from the compressor (1) flows into the condenser (3) to radiate heat. The refrigerant then cools lubricating oil in the compressor (1) at the oil cooler (4). and again radiates heat in the condenser (3), where R600 and the most part of R125 of the refrigerant are liquidized. The refrigerant then enters the first gas/liquid separator (5).
- In the separator, liquid R600 and R125 are separated from the remaining part of R125 yet gaseous, R508A, and R14. The former group flows into the liquid phase piping (6) while the latter group flows into the gas phase piping (9).
- R600 and R125 having flowed into the liquid phase piping (6) are depressurized in the first capillary tube (7), and then flow into the first intermediate heat exchanger (8) to be evaporated there.
- Since the fed-back refrigerant from the evaporator (17) is flowing into the first intermediate heat exchanger (8), the temperature of the exchanger is about -9.1°C.
- On the other hand, while R125, R508A, and R14 having flowed into the gas phase piping (9) pass through the first intermediate heat exchanger (8), R125 and part of R508A are cooled by R600 and R125 evaporated in the exchanger (8) and the fed-back refrigerant from the evaporator (17). They are condensed and liquidized thereby, and then enter the second gas/liquid separator (10).
- In the separator, liquid R125 and R508A are separated from the remaining part of R508A yet gaseous and R14. The former group flows into the liquid phase piping (11) while the latter group flows into the gas phase piping (14).
- R125 and R508A having flowed into the liquid phase piping (11) are depressurized in the second capillary tube (12), and then flow into the second intermediate heat exchanger (13) to be evaporated there. Since the fed-back refrigerant from the evaporator (17) is flowing into the second intermediate heat exchanger (13), the temperature of the exchanger is about -33.3°C.
- On the other hand, while R508A and R14R having flowed into the gas phase piping (14) pass through the second intermediate heat exchanger (13), R508A is cooled by R125 and R508A evaporated in the exchanger (13) and the fed-back refrigerant from the evaporator (17), and thereby condensed and liquidized, and then passes through the third intermediate heat exchanger (15).
- Here, the refrigerant coming immediately out of the evaporator (17) is flowing into the third intermediate heat exchanger (15), so the temperature of the exchanger is about -60.1°C.
- Thus, R14 flowing in the gas phase piping (14) is also condensed here. These liquidized R508A and R14 are depressurized in the third capillary tube (16), and then flow into the evaporator (17), where they are evaporated to cool the circumference.
- At this time, the mean temperature of the evaporator (17) became an ultralow temperature as about -90.7°C. By using this evaporator (17) for cooling, e.g., the interior of a freezer, the interior could be cooled to about -89.4°C.
- The refrigerant having come out of the evaporator (17) flows into the intermediate heat exchangers (15), (13), and (8) in turn, and joins with the refrigerants evaporated in them, and then returns to the compressor (1) through the suction piping (19).
- Oil of the compressor (1) circulating in the refrigerant circuit is returned to the compressor (1) in a state that it is dissolved in R600.
- Besides, R600 serves also to lower the discharge temperature of the compressor (1). The performance of this refrigerating circuit is shown in FIG. 2. The numbers in FIG. 2 show the numbers of the respective parts in FIG. 1. But, Eva-inlet indicates not the evaporator (17) but, in practice, a portion after the third capillary tube (16) and between the evaporator (17) and the capillary tube (16). Besides, the number of
Interior 1/2 center air is not present in FIG. 1 so it is not entered. - The composition of each of these refrigerants is not limited to that of the embodiment. That is, by experiments, it was confirmed that an ultralow temperature of -90°C or less could be obtained in the evaporator (17) by mixing within the ranges of 28.6 to 42.9 wt.% for R600, 10.7 to 28.6 wt.% for R125, 14.3 to 28.6 wt.% for R508A, and 19.6 to 46.4 wt.% for R14.
- In the above mixture refrigerant, even when R23 (trifluoromethane: CHF3: boiling point -82.1°C) that R116 was removed from R508A is used, the same ultralow temperature can be obtained. Besides, in the above mixture refrigerant, even when R508B (46/54: R23/R116) is used in place of R508A, the same ultralow temperature can be obtained.
- According to the present invention, there is no fear that the refrigerant may break the ozonosphere.
